That's my favorite model. I'd love to see a bespoke master's take on this
classic. Pictures?
I only got measurements taken, so nothing yet. But this is the photo that I showed Nicholas as a reference (it's a pair that he made).

First fittings today for a Fox Air POW and the Loro Piana seersucker I’d been saving mythical commission #11. Forgot to grab a picture of the Fox Air.

Also did a final fitting for a flannel DB project that will be great to have next winter.

I would be having a conversation with my cutter about that fit. You are gonna get some unwelcome waves breaking right.

…is what Christian Okeye would have said to any tailor whose baste looked like that of Jrm928.
You seem like a pleasant fellow. Glad you’ve managed to waste two of your eight posts on my fitting.

I’m sorry you’re offended. I didn’t mean to be a dick, but I assume you posted it because you wanted comments and it’s a poor fit. If it’s MTM or off the peg and you’re happy then so be it.

Finally got around to snapping a pic of my recent I Sarti suit made with Derek's 'summer tweed'.

I'm so happy with the outcome of this one, I've been itching to get brown-tan linen-ish suit for a while. The fabric is great, perfect shade to worn as a summer casual suit or broken down into separates. I opted for a 3 patch configuration in the @UrbanComposition Italian-ish drape cut that he worked out with Salvo; its casual and comfy but has a great silhouette.

Already thinking of ideas for the next order...

I would lengthen the trousers given the fuller cut. A slight break on the shoe and heel.

Fox Tweed "chore jacket" received yesterday. Crosspost from the Pastena Elegance thread.

Looking to order another one with some slight changes in a cashmere blend if anyone has bunch recommendations. Can't decide if it would look better with a placket.
